Brittany

Brittany is an established townhome community in Plainsboro Township, 267 units arranged in 37 buildings across 25.6 acres, built in 1986 and set in the West Windsor-Plainsboro Regional school district. Its scale and amenity package make it feel more like a planned neighborhood than a typical townhome complex, and it consistently delivers what families and young professionals look for: WW-P school access at a moderate price point. Recent BrightMLS closings have run from about $543,000 to roughly $699,000, with a median near $638,000. Its combination of scale, amenities, and school access has made it one of the township's most recognizable townhome addresses.

The homes

Brittany is all townhomes, dating from the community's 1986 construction, so floor plans and quality are consistent throughout. Units generally offer two to three bedrooms with two full baths and a half bath, and interior space runs from roughly 1,750 to 2,200 square feet, with the larger interior-row and end-of-row plans at the top of the range. After nearly four decades, many homes carry owner updates to kitchens and baths, and end units command a premium for the added light and privacy. It is a practical, right-sized option for buyers who want WW-P schools without the price of a detached home. An end-of-row unit on Thoreau Drive recently closed at $699,000, the top of the range, while interior units generally trade in the low-to-mid $600,000s.

Amenities and setting

The standout is one of the largest community pools in the area, complemented by tennis courts, a playground, and a jogging trail that winds through the grounds. The main interior streets, Tennyson Drive and Thoreau Drive, are lined with mature trees, and the settled landscaping across the 25.6-acre site gives the community a well-established, park-like character. Long-term residents contribute to a stable, neighborly feel that newer townhome developments take years to build.

Schools and commute

Every home is zoned for the West Windsor-Plainsboro Regional School District, consistently one of the top-ranked public systems in New Jersey and the primary draw for buyers here. For commuters, Princeton Junction station on the Northeast Corridor line puts Midtown Manhattan roughly 50 minutes away, with additional service toward Trenton and Philadelphia. The Route 1 corridor handles the drive to Princeton, the university, and the region's pharmaceutical and technology campuses, and its shopping and grocery are only minutes away.

Market position

At a median near $638,000, Brittany offers practical value for townhome living in the WW-P district, sitting in the middle of Plainsboro's market range and below the price of the township's single-family neighborhoods. Because the units share a common vintage and floor plans, pricing comes down to condition, interior updates, and whether a home is an interior or end unit, so working with an agent who knows how those factors move value in this specific community pays off. The community also sees consistent rental and resale demand, and because the homes are so similar, small differences in condition and unit position can be the difference between a quick sale and a lingering listing.
